One is a FMQ open toe foot that when you have the machine on the frame, the open part actually faces you -- genius!
The others are thicker at the bottom - more like a longarm foot - so you can do ruler work without the foot slipping under the ruler all the time, and so they'll play well with longarm rulers and templates.
I'm pumped, I can't wait to see them (and find out the price tag, well, not so pumped about that one)
So, guess what happened yesterday?
Yes indeed. Princess Horizon decided it was time for a spa day. Crap! But since she's put in 2 years of hard labor, I guess I should be ok with that. It just killed the budget for new feet.
There's always next month, or Christmas, right?
Like several have said before, I would really be interested in seeing what quilting frame you use as I'm looking to invest in one to use with my Horizon. Thanks so much for any info. you can share!

P.S. I hope the Princess came back all shiney & new after her spa day.
